Do the rumors ever stop for Marvel Studios movies? Apparently not and not even on Marvel's own production sets.

While walking around the Downtown Cleveland Captain America: The Winter Soldier set today, Plain Dealer and Cleveland.com reporter Michael Sangiacomo was most likely talking to any production person who would give him any information. I can relate since I have been doing the same thing the past two days.

According to Sangiacomo's Twitter account, he got one piece of info that is sure to start churning the rumor mill and debate machines across the Internet.

Without citing a more specific source, it's hard to take the portion of the info that says the Black Panther will be in The Avengers 2 seriously. But we do know for a fact as writer/director Joss Whedon has confirmed his current draft of the ensemble movie's script has Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver in it.

Rumors have been on the 'Net for pretty much a year now saying that Black Panther will get his own solo movie at some point down the road but perhaps his origin and introduction will indeed be coming from The Avengers Sequel. This rumor adds to the other rumor, from just a few days ago, stating that a portion of the sequel could be filmed in Africa. Maybe this is all starting to come together. Maybe.

Tough to tell what is truth and lies anymore. Especially when new info is provided and the sources are so vaguely described or not described at all—like in this specific case. That's the nature of the Internet media machine anymore so take this with a grain of salt. Or believe it. Your choice.

This reminds me of the second Ultimate Avengers movie that came out a few years ago, except ant man and wasp are being replaced by quicksilver and scarlet witch. The first avengers movie played out almost just like the first Ultimate Avengers movie, too. Hmmm...

The big draw for Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch would be how their powers look onscreen. I really do dig those characters but other than beating DC to the punch as far as speedsters go, their abilities could be excellent to see and would add a ton of dynamics.

I think a Black Panther movie would not be an easy sell to mainstream audiences. Introducing him first in the Avengers 2 and having the audience fall in love with him there and only then releasing a solo movie may be the best route for the character.

What if... QS and SW were in it AS MUTANTS AND AS MAGNETO'S KIDS?!? What if this is the first bridge between Fox and Marvel? Imagine them mentioning Magneto in A2 - good for Fox as free advertising in a 1.5+ billion dollar movie (plus royalties on the names bring screened) and Marvel fanboys (it's a compliment, I'm a purebred) kept sweet by this huge ester egg, there is nobody who wouldn't benefit from it. Loadsa return

What if... Someday studios paired up characters/franchises like how music artists collaborate?I know it's always been, for most of us, a case of rolling our eyes when reading some newb on here taking about 'having spider-man /wolverine in the Avengers" and their total lack of knowledge re studio ownership rights/licensing, but what if we lived in a world where it is that simple for it to happen?

I know the main issue is %'s and screen time but someone has to be the 'featuring' role at any given time but the favour is returned. Hugh Jackman showing up in the Avengers. Imagine it. Freddy and Jason did it. Aliens vs Predators. Shame Robocop vs Terminator was just a video game.

Picture them slowly introducing characters, SW & QS in A2 then cameoing in an end of film battle sequence in x-men 4(5?). RDJ getting $30 million for a 2 week shoot to pop up in there. Spider-Man cameo in A3. None of this is totally out of the realm of being a possible reality we live in. I foresee FF and X-Men tie ins between fox/sony.

What if it led to a world where Thanos went from Avengers cameo to GOTG, from GOTG to A2, from A2 to Infinite Gaunlet involving every character from From Fox, Sony & Marvel?

Take a step further into this future. A world we never imagined may come true. We knew is should, but never quite believed it possible. A future that has been building since Blade in '98 (nice try 1996's Generation X....) and catalysed by X-Men 1 and Spider-Man 1. After loving all things Marvel related for 30 years (I'm 31) this is a magical time to live. Geeks inherit the world.

Right now I'm thinking Black Panther will cameo in CATWS. Then either straight to Avengers 2 or a solo flim in Phase three, then a major part of AV3.

If CATWS is somewhat based on Nick Fury VS SHIELD, I see Fury escaping to Wakanda, where it's safe and mostly off of SHIELDs radar, to seek help from the evil that is spreading inside the organization. Fury will convince the Wakanda King, either T'Challa or T'Chaka,to help. Seeing as this course of coruption will effect Wakanda sooner or later, it makes sense they would help in some kinda fashion. Then Cap, Falcon and Widdow catch up to Fury and all together they fight back SHIELD.

This is probably way too much to ask for in one flim, but hell I can dream.
